Fesko elaborated: "Well, apparently your grandmother wrote that your grandfather was very much influenced by classical themes, with themes of the American Renaissance and with figures of muses and virtues and these lovely allegorical figures are terrific."

How many times can the French catch lightning in a bottle like that achievement? Who thought 2019 could be equaled or topped when Parasite became the first Palme d’Or winner to also take the Best Picture Oscar since Marty did it in 1955, and where Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time In Hollywood (also an official selection that year) went on to ten nominations and two Oscar wins?
